5.0 out of 5 stars Fast Paced, Exciting, and Utterly Bizarre, May 13, 2002

This review is from: DeadFellas (Paperback)

David Whitman's Deadfellas is a book unlike any other book you'll ever read. Deadfellas is an intense roller coaster of a novel full of zombies and doubles and more action than a John Woo film. The characters are thrown into a bizarre series of events and are forced to react with utmost brutality, while still managing to maintain a dark sense of humor and the ability to laugh at the absurdity of life. Simply put: This book kicks ..., and you won't be disappointed.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Quick and Entertaining Read, May 2, 2002

This review is from: DeadFellas (Paperback)

David Whitman's novella Deadfellas is an entertaining and quick read. This story is not really horror as in horror scary; it's more like a walk through a Twilight Zone-themed carnival funhouse ride. DeadFella's is character-rich with a fairly good plot, lots of bizarre action and tons of humor.

Who doesn't love a smarmy clipped brit accent - and the distortion of reality - and a bunch of undead running amuck. From the start I imagined the characters similar to the supporting cast from Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels trolling through the cemetery on the way to a hit, oblivious to the trap of insanity about the snatch them up. Only a group of hit men could have such great humor in dealing with the undead. Loved every bit of this book because, well frankly... I can't remember the last time I read a horror story that made me laugh out loud and this did.
